Graduation

So this post is a few months behind but I still haven't received my diploma yet so.......

Anyway, I graduated with my Masters in Education from UW-Stout on December 19th. It was a very fun and special day for me and my family. Erik, my mom and Erik's parents were all there to celebrate with me in Menomonie. Stout only holds a morning graduation in the winter so we were in town bright and early but it was worth it because I wanted to be on time and settled to calm my nerves. It was funny how anxious I was about the ceremony. I think part of the anxiety was because I didn't set foot on campus once for class since all of my courses were on-line :) Luckily, I did attend Stout for my undergrad so I knew my way around.

The ceremony itself was fine....not too long and very excited once my program was called to come up. I was the first one in our group....got to love having an "A" to start the last name. After the ceremony was over we took some pictures on campus and then went to the Stout Ale House to celebrate. Later that evening back in River Falls we had a nice dinner and drinks at our house. It was a wonderful and memorable weekend!
